UUA Community Care and Resilience Skills Survey

As we strive to meet this moment, we want to anchor ourselves in communities and relationships that foster resilience and liberation. To do that, we need to cultivate readiness for the climate disasters and political threats that folks are already experiencing and those yet to come. 

We believe that sharing our gifts with one another is a way we live our shared values of generosity and equity, and a core part of our religious practice. Our congregations and faithful communities want to be ready to support one another and our neighborhoods, including those who may be most at risk.

That's why we're turning to you, our beloved community members, to create a map of our collective skills and training.  

We invite any and all Unitarian Universalists and UU-adjacent folks to tell us what skills, experience, training, and resources you have that are essential to responding to immediate and ongoing needs in case of crisis or emergency. We will use the information collected here for future rapid and ongoing response to events like natural disasters, civil unrest, or other emergency.

This information will not be shared outside of UUA staff without explicit permission.

Thank you for sharing your skills so we can be a more resilient community of Unitarian Universalists!
